Ventura County, located just northwest of Los Angeles, is home to more than 900,000 people. It has a strong economic base including several major industries and universities. In forming the joint venture, RadNet contributed three of its Rolling Oaks Radiology imaging centers in Ventura, Oxnard and Camarillo. Dignity Health contributed an imaging center co-located with its St. John’s Regional Medical Center in Oxnard. The imaging locations provide multimodality radiology including MRI, CT, Mammography, PET/CT, Ultrasound, Xray, and Nuclear Medicine.

Dr. Howard Berger, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of RadNet, noted, “We are pleased to announce an expanded relationship with Dignity Health. In the second quarter of 2016, we established our initial joint venture with Dignity in the Glendale, California marketplace. That venture has had excellent performance, and it formed the basis of a shared vision and operating strategy for outpatient diagnostic imaging that now will be expanded to Ventura County. Dignity Health operates two hospitals in the area surrounding these four joint venture imaging centers, and I’m certain that Dignity’s relationships and outreach into these medical communities will bring great value to the newly created partnership.”

“It is the mission and intention of St. John’s Regional Medical Center in Oxnard and St. John’s Pleasant Valley Hospital in Camarillo to maintain our commitment to the community to provide advanced technologies and services to our patients. This joint venture furthers our capabilities, allowing us to provide the most innovative imaging equipment available to best serve our growing region. We are proud to partner with RadNet, as our visions of providing state-of the-art imaging services are aligned,” says Darren Lee, President & CEO, St. John’s Regional Medical Center and St. John’s Pleasant Valley Hospital.
